Fern's Way

Just one more gratuitous mention of Fern's Naming Day and then I promise to leave it alone...

Yesterday I was given a CD of images my sister in law took on the day. There are some amazing images, inspiring me to put together a photo montage of the day, something I'll get started on this week... but what I really wanted to share with you was this image:

Have a look near the top right hand corner where you will see a little wooden signpost that spells 'Fern's Way'. My husband's parents have adorably named various sections of their 20 acre property with the names of each of their seven grandchildren. I almost forgot, until I saw this image! Fern's ceremony was held right there, in front of the fountain with her little signpost to the side.

I also wanted to share the below image, which captures the personality of my little girl (and her jewellery fetish - she is her mother's daughter) and her two amazing Godparents beautifully and is, for all its imperfection, my favorite image from the day.

ps. I am very excited -- this week I will reveal my long awaited backyard blitz!! It is 95% complete, and I cannot wait a second longer to share!

Hi! I'm Nicole... a creative, details obsessed girl that literally cannot sit still! I'm passionate about my sewing projects, animals, licorice allsorts, craft and cook books and my two adorable children... though not necessarily in that order! My blog is a diary of my muddle through motherhood, a journal of things that inspire me, and a way to communicate with the world whilst wearing my uggies!
